Are you a fan of Western Genre?

My son, Bill Proctor a.k.a Billy to me, has just started college and he did a presentation on Western Genre with a group of fellow students. I thought it was pretty good, although I noted spelling errors LMAO. It was enjoyable seeing some of the pictures of my favorite western actors. Hearing my son narrate the film was cool. His wife is from Italy and everytime he pronounced a certain Italian director I had to grin because he said it with an Italian accent. Please take a few minutes to watch his YouTube video. He complained only 4 people had seen it and says it was probably him checking on it 4 times LOL
